Eligibility

Requirements

  • Historical: new to Webflow, fewer than 50 employees, raised less than $15M
  • Historical: referred by a Webflow startup partner

Not eligible

  • New applicants after June 30, 2026
  • Existing Webflow customers
  • Yearly billing (promo code only worked with monthly plans)

How to apply

  1. 1

    The program no longer accepts applications; existing participants redeem their promo code on a monthly site plan per the help-centre article.

  2. 2

    New startups should use Webflow's free Starter plan or standard site plans, or watch webflow.com for a replacement program.

Gotchas

  • Closed to new applicants since June 30, 2026 despite partner landing pages that still advertise the offer.
  • The promo code applied only to monthly billing; switching to yearly billing voided it.
  • The offer was partner-gated: there was never a direct application without a referral.

About the Webflow program

Webflow for Startups offered partner-referred startups a promo code for a free year of a Webflow site plan (a CMS site plan on most partner pages; a monthly Premium site plan in the redemption help article). Eligibility required being new to Webflow, having fewer than 50 employees, having raised less than $15M, and being referred by one of Webflow's startup partners (accelerators, VCs and founder communities such as Entrepreneur First, Hustle Fund or Founders Club).

Webflow's help centre (updated July 10, 2026) states that the program ended on June 30, 2026: Webflow decided to sunset it, no longer accepts new applications, and program infrastructure is being retired. Startups accepted before the cut-off are honoured through their existing commitments. The promo code only worked with monthly billing, not yearly.

Several Webflow partner landing pages (the Y Combinator and Founders Club pages still advertised 100% off a CMS Site plan for 12 months on 2026-11-03) remain live, but the help-centre closure notice is the authoritative statement and those pages should be treated as stale. No replacement startup program has been announced; Webflow's general pricing and free Starter plan remain the fallback.
